A
creative gift idea for kids and adults is to "adopt" their favorite
animal from the World Wildlife Fund. While other organizations do this
as well, the WWF seems to have the biggest selection of animals. There
are different levels of price-points so for as little as $25 you can
pick out a really creative and meaningful gift. So far, I have only done
the panda and it was a big hit!

Host
a House Party and receive freebies and coupons and exclusive new
products to try. Just apply for the party you are interested in having
and once selected you will receive a party pack with the sponsoring
companies' products. Invite your friends and family to come try it out
and provide feedback based on the response to the product.I have
been to several parties, one for pizza and the other for Pull-Ups. A fun
and easy way to get freebies and provide feedback on the products
before they are fully marketed.

Starfall
is a beginning reading website for young children, mainly aged 3-7.
Great graphics and fun games make learning letter sounds easy and
enjoyable. There is a paid portion, but the free part has more than
enough to keep children busy.Website address: http://www.starfall.com/
